Still here...

If you haven't already, check out Katie's blog (her link is on this page). She has some pictures from the trip so far.

Cameron and I have been in VA for 9 days already! It's crazy to think it's been that long. It's gone by quickly, although we both really miss Chad. Good thing he's coming in tomorrow night. I don't think Cameron could last much longer! He hasn't taken very good naps the past couple of days. I think it's in anticipation of seeing his daddy. Too bad he'll be asleep when Chad gets in tomorrow night. Oh well. Chad can hold him all throughout church.

Anyway, things are good. I'll see both of my brothers and their families tomorrow for a big family get-together/birthday party. It's my niece's, two nephews', and my birthday this month. So we'll have a cake and presents and a lot of food on the grill! Mmmm. I'm sad Chad will miss out but know he'll have TONS of fun on his plane rides and his 3-hour layover in Hotlanta. Riiiiight.

Love you Chad! See you tomorrow!! :)

Getting ready for a trip!

Cameron and I are getting ready to go to VA for about a month! We're really excited (well, I am and I'm sure he'll enjoy his time, too) and leave in a few days. We'll be in Richmond for about two weeks and then traveling around VA visiting Chad's family for a couple days. Then we're off to Myrtle Beach, SC with Chad's family for a week. Finally, we'll come back to Richmond for my friend's wedding reception and my nephew's baptism. Whew! It's going to be a long trip, but one that will be so good for us. Chad will join us in a few weeks after his summer class is over.

Cameron was trying on hats for the beach. This is the only one that seemed to sort of fit.






Cameron is trying to look tough with his gang sign.



This is what I call a "Chad smile"--it's kind of a sideways, crooked smile.


I'm not sure how much I'll post while I'm at home cause I don't have the software to download pics on my parents' computer. But I'll definitely take a lot of pictures and update when I get back at the end of August. You can also check out Katie's blog (her link is on here) for any pictures we might take at home. Have a good August!!

Bathtime with Daddy

We give Cameron a bath every night as part of his nighttime routine. He seems to enjoy it and I think it helps him calm down a little before going to bed. These are some pictures from his bath tonight with Chad.

Getting ready for Church

Funny Daddy

Chad was making Cameron laugh tonight. Here is the sequence of his faces and excitement.





The pictures don't really do his smile justice. He does it so fast that I can't get a good picture of him smiling in focus. Guess you'll just have to take my word for it until you see him in person!

Have we created a monster?!?!?!

Lots to tell...

Cameron gets chapped lips quite a bit. When he has skin that's pulled off a little, it kind of looks like he has rabit teeth. I couldn't get a great picture of this, but this is what it kind of looks like.



So Chad cut his hair today and wanted me to help with the back (like I usually do). He had cut the top and sides and then taken the guard off to clean it. But he didn't put it back on and I didn't even notice it wasn't on until I took a major chunk out of the back of his hair! I felt so horrible and kept apologizing. Chad was surprisingly calm, but I still felt so bad. So he had to buzz it. I think he looks really good with it buzzed, anyway. And it's a good summer cut.

He's definitely a good sport, although he wanted to use the clippers on my hair, too. He said it was only fair. Riiiiight.

I found Cameron trying to eat Chad's shirt last night. I thought this pose was pretty funny.



And this is just too cute.
